I just completed my first full download and sort using geeqie to manage my RAW workflow. Unless you are a photographer shooting in RAW formats (DNG in my case) you can have no idea just how much time and effort you've saved me by recompiling this little gem (and thanks to Jemima for finding it too).

I've also just completed a full clean out of old RAW images on my backup drive using geeqie to sort and delete. It took a couple of hours for a job that would have taken me days the old way.

any known pets or sfx's of Geeqie that run on lucid 5.2.8? I tried all 3 versions in this thread. The first one shows up on the graphic menu, but nothing happens when i run it. The other two install, but don't show on the graphics menu. Probably my own error!

Actually, i'm just looking for a simple app that can display all the images in a folder in a grid. Viewnior can only show one image at a time.

Something that I hate with this picture viewer is how it defaults to remember if I use + to make a picture bigger. then when I hit Space
to go to next picture then it remember that I want pictures bigger even them I don't want bigger.

Maybe one can correct that behavior in some settings
but I totally fail to get how one do that trick.

That is not how Viewnior do things. Defaul in Viewnior is to keep everyting as it is and not use the + other than if I hit the + to tell it to make it bigger.

That is what I expect of a program. To do what I tell it and not introduce
some fancy thing that is impossible to shut down without being a genius!

Could some friendly soul tell me in PM maybe how one edit some config file to change that default to be like viewnior has it instead?_________________I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

if you "just" want to see the thumbnails ROX-Filer (the file explorer) does this
just right click on the eye icon

Awesome! Thanks!

But, I found something I like even more: xfce window/desktop manager. I like xfce much more than jwm or enlightenment. The thunar folder browser is clean, cute, and has the kind of user-friendly features that make Mac and windows so easy.

For example, thimbnails are automatically enabled on image folders. The right click menu on files is simpler, and only 1 level deep. In jwm when you right click a file, then you have to go into a sub menu for file actions like rename and delete. That's a pain, especially when you're close to the edge of the monitor, cuz then the file menu is not selected.

The toolbar autohide feature on jwm is not usable, because the unhiding hotspot is higher than the menu itself, which does not make sense. Xfce gets it right!

The xfce firefox browser enhancements (at least that what I think they work) are also helpful.

You can right click on an image and pick "use as wallpaper". Very convenient!

The xfce toolbars can be placed anywhere, like enlightenment, but they work. I had such a hard time trying to configure enlightenment, it's so complicated, and doesn't feel stable. Xfce feels really stable.

Connecting the windows keyboard key to the start menu was a cinch. No scripting needed, no config files to deal with. Great window/desktop/folder manager.

Has the features and behaviors that jwm is missing, and that are too complicated in enlightenment.
